At a UFC 193 press conference in Australia on Tuesday night, the UFC women's bantamweight champion ripped the Nevada Athletic Commission (NAC) for banning Diaz five years due to a failed drug test for marijuana.
"It's so not right for him to be suspended five years for marijuana," Rousey said. "I'm against them testing for weed at all. It's not a performance-enhancing drug. It has nothing to do with athletic competition. It's only tested for political reasons. They say, 'Oh, it's only for your safety to keep you from hurting yourself because you're out there.' Why don't they test for all of the other things that could possibly hurt us?
